I told Mary about us,
told her about the great sin
Mary cried and forgave me,
and Mary took me back again
Said if I wanted my freedom,
I could be free evermore
But I don't want to be,
I don't want to see Mary cry anymore
Oh, devil woman,
devil woman, let go of me
Devil woman, let me be,
leave me alone, I want to go home
Mary is waiting and weeping down
in a shack by the sea
Even after I've hurt her,
Mary's still in love with me
Devil woman, it's over,
trapped no more by your charm
Cause I don't wanna stay,
I wanna get away,
woman, let go of my arm
Oh, devil woman,
devil woman, let go of me
Devil woman, let me be
And leave me alone, I wanna go home
Devil woman, you're evil
Like the dark coral reef
Like the winds that bring high tide
You bring sorrow and grief
Made me ashamed to face Mary
Mary had a strength to tell
Skies are not so black,
Mary took me back
Mary has broken your spell,
oh, double woman
Double woman, let go of me
Double woman, let me be
And leave me alone, I wanna go home
Running along by the seashore
Running as fast as I can
Even the seagulls are happy,
glad I'm coming home again
Never again will I ever cause
another tear to fall
Down the beach I see what belongs to me,
the one I want most of all
Oh, level woman, level woman,
don't follow me
Love a woman, let me be
And leave me alone,
I'm going back home
